Error 1067 in AIR?

Question

I'm trying to make a Flash game with a simple socket server, and I have this package imported into the Flash document:
package
    import flash.display.Sprite;
    import flash.events.Event;
    import flash.events.IOErrorEvent;
    import flash.events.ProgressEvent;
    import flash.events.ServerSocketConnectEvent;
    import flash.net.ServerSocket;
    import flash.net.Socket;
    public class TCP extends Sprite
        private var serverSocket:ServerSocket;
        private var clientSockets:Array = new Array();
        public function TCP()
            try
                // Create the server socket
                serverSocket = new ServerSocket();
                // Add the event listener
                serverSocket.addEventListener( Event.CONNECT, connectHandler );
                serverSocket.addEventListener( Event.CLOSE, onClose );
                // Bind to local port 8087
                serverSocket.bind( 8087, "127.0.0.1" );
                // Listen for connections
                serverSocket.listen();
                trace( "Listening on " + serverSocket.localPort );
            catch(e:SecurityError)
                trace(e);
        public function connectHandler(event:ServerSocketConnectEvent):void
            //Thesocket is provided by the event object
            var socket:Socket = event.socket as Socket;
            clientSockets.push( socket );
            socket.addEventListener( ProgressEvent.SOCKET_DATA, socketDataHandler);
            socket.addEventListener( Event.CLOSE, onClientClose );
            socket.addEventListener( IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, onIOError );
            //Send a connect message
            socket.writeUTFBytes("Connected.");
            socket.flush();
            trace( "Sending connect message" );
        public function socketDataHandler(event:ProgressEvent):void
            var socket:Socket = event.target as Socket
            //Read the message from the socket
            var message:String = socket.readUTFBytes( socket.bytesAvailable );
            trace( "Received: " + message);
            // Echo the received message back to the sender
            message = "Echo -- " + message;
            socket.writeUTFBytes( message );
            socket.flush();
            trace( "Sending: " + message );
        private function onClientClose( event:Event ):void
            trace( "Connection to client closed." );
            //Should also remove from clientSockets array...
        private function onIOError( errorEvent:IOErrorEvent ):void
            trace( "IOError: " + errorEvent.text );
        private function onClose( event:Event ):void
            trace( "Server socket closed by OS." );
However, when I try to run the SWF, I get this:
1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type Class to an unrelated type Function.
This is what is in the FLA:
import TCP;
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, TCP);
The error shows up on the addEventListener. I have the publish settings in the FLA set to AIR 2.6. Why? Because when I have it set to Flash Player 10.2, I get this error:
1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: ServerSocketConnectEvent.
The ServerSocketConnectEvent is in the "TCP" package. I switched the publish settings to AIR because after doing a quick Google search, ServerSocketConnectEvent is apparently strictly meant for AIR. So that means switching the publish settings to AIR was the correct thing to do... right? Unless I'm getting something horribly wrong here...
But basically, when it's set to Flash Player, it imports the package and TCP eventlistener just fine, but it screws up at the ServerSocketConnectEvent. So when I switch to AIR, I get that weird 1067 error at the addEventListener... is there something wrong with the package? I got it straight off of an example Adobe had, I couldn't imagine something being improperly coded... is there something I'm missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Answer 1

I've tried importing an example class as well, with literally no lines of code in it other than:
package  {
    public class example {
        public function example() {
And then this is in the FLA:
import example;
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, example);
And even with something as simple as that, I get the same error. So yes I would think you're right, but what would I do to fix this? Change the names of the function and class to unique ones? Change the name of the package itself? If so could I get some example? Because I'm a total noob when it comes to class importing and such... and again like I said, when I'm publishing with Flash Player it returns no errors as far as the importing goes, I'm just curious as to why it would be different when using AIR...
